METHOD, DEVICE, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR DETERMINING DATA RECOVERY DURATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18226413 titled 'METHOD, DEVICE, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR DETERMINING DATA RECOVERY DURATION
The technique described in the abstract involves determining different phases of data recovery and predicting the recovery duration based on metadata metrics.
- The technique determines a recovery duration for each phase of data recovery based on a metadata metric set.
- By calculating the recovery duration for each phase, the overall data recovery duration can be accurately predicted.
- This allows users to know in advance how long data unavailability will last, helping them schedule data recovery more effectively.
Potential Applications: - Data centers - IT departments - Disaster recovery planning
Problems Solved: - Uncertainty around data recovery timelines - Inefficient scheduling of data recovery processes
Benefits: - Improved planning and scheduling of data recovery - Reduced downtime for critical systems - Enhanced efficiency in data management
Commercial Applications: Title: "Predictive Data Recovery Duration Technique for Enhanced Business Continuity" This technology can be utilized by data centers and IT service providers to offer more reliable and efficient data recovery services. It can also be integrated into disaster recovery planning software for businesses to enhance their resilience to data loss events.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technique improve the efficiency of data recovery processes? - This technique allows for accurate prediction of data recovery durations, enabling better planning and scheduling of recovery tasks. 2. What are the potential implications of using this technology in disaster recovery planning? - Implementing this technology in disaster recovery planning can lead to faster recovery times and reduced impact on business operations in the event of data loss.
Original Abstract Submitted
Technique for determining a data recovery duration involve determining a plurality of phases of data recovery. Such techniques further involve determining, based on a metadata metric set of a phase in the plurality of phases, a recovery duration of the phase, the recovery duration of the phase representing a duration required for recovery of the phase. Such techniques further involve determining the data recovery duration based on the recovery duration of the phase. Accordingly, a data recovery duration can be accurately predicted, and a user can know in advance how long data unavailability will last, which helps the user make a decision to schedule the data recovery in an appropriate time period, thereby being more effective and efficient for the user.
